Description

Could this be the finest vinegar in the world? Many connoisseurs think so.

The grapes are picked when temperatures are minus 8 C. and pressed while still frozen. The resulting vinegar is dark like a raisin, has a soft sweetness and glows with fruit. Minus 8 is similar in body to balsamic vinegar and similar in depth to an aged sherry vinegar. The vinegar starts with red and white wine, then fermented slowly into vinegar, aged in French oak barrels, and blended using the solera method, in which batches from previous years are mixed in with the new vintage.

Minus 8 can be used as is for flavoring finished dishes, to marinate foods or to sip as a digestive, mixed with oil for dressing, incorporated into sauces, or gently reduced for extra viscosity and concentration.

Minus 8 is wonderful with foie gras, meats, fish and seafood, duck, cheeses, fruits and vegetables, salads, and sauces, and is far more wine-friendly than most vinegars.

If you're one of those people who like their cranberry sauce to come out of a can, then read no further. But if you like the taste of real cranberries and LOVE the flavor of dried Michigan tart cherries, then this is the cranberry sauce for you.

Light, refreshing and tangy Cranberry Sauce with Michigan Dried Cherries strikes the perfect balance with the rich flavors of roast turkey, but it's equally wonderful with pork, lamb or game. The hint of crystallized ginger is just enough to keep things interesting without going overboard. It's also easy enough for a novice cook to make with scarcely any effort, so get the kids to help. They'll be proud of their cooking prowess and the whole family can enjoy the results!

This wonderful recipe is adapted from one by Curtis Aikens. It requires practically no work. On a scale of one to ten, one being easy, this rates approximately minus five. On the other hand, with some fresh fruit, cheese and crackers, it makes a lovely light dinner. If you want just a little more substance, throw in some sliced avocado. It also goes very well with cold soup. This yields four servings. Don't forget the wine.
